If you're posting "Econ 101" or "supply and demand" in response to a question about people, whether it's labor or immigration, it means you're getting the wrong result. People who do this always forget to consider both supply and demand instead of just the one that makes things look worse.

(Immigrants are a positive demand shock because they increase your customer base.)
